Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Konservierung von stärkehaltigen Futtermitteln durch Silieren, bei dem die Futtermittel in an sich üblicher Weise zerkleinert, in einen Silo eingebracht und dort der Gärung unterworfen werden.The invention relates to a method for the preservation of starchy feedstuffs by means of ensiling, in which the feedstuffs are comminuted in a conventional manner, placed in a silo and subjected to fermentation there.

Zur Herstellung von Silofutter hat man vor allem Grünfutter zerkleinert, gegebenenfalls mit üblichen Zusätzen für die Silierung versehen und in möglichst luftdicht gebaute Silos eingebracht. Unter möglichst weitgehendem Ausschluß von Luftsauerstoff erfolgt im Silo eine Milchsäuregärung, die den Futtermitteln einen sauren pH-Wert verleiht und dadurch eine Konservierung verursacht.For the production of silage, green fodder in particular has been crushed, optionally provided with the usual additives for ensiling and introduced into silos that are built as airtight as possible. With the greatest possible exclusion of atmospheric oxygen, lactic acid fermentation takes place in the silo, which gives the animal feed an acidic pH value and thus causes conservation.

In jüngerer Zeit ist man verschiedentlich dazu übergegangen, auch besonders stärkehaltiges Futtermittel, wieIn recent times there have been various changes, including starchy feed, such as

Rüben und insbesondere Mais und Getreide, durch Silieren haltbar zu machen. Zur Vorbereitung für die Silierung werden die Getreidearten, wie auch Mais, durch Mahlen zerkleinert und nach der Zerkleinerung in den Silo eingebracht.Beet, and especially corn and cereals, to be preserved by ensiling. In preparation for ensiling, the cereals, like maize, are crushed by grinding and introduced into the silo after crushing.

Bei der Beschickung des Silos mit Getreide treten jedoch außerordentliche Schwierigkeiten auf, weil derartige hochstärkehaltige Futtermittel nicht pumpfähig sind. Dies hat einerseits zur Folge, daß eine kontinuierliche Beschickung der Silos und eine entsprechende kontinuierliche Entnahme des silierten Futtermittels nicht möglich ist und daß andererseits im Silo futtermittelfreie Hohlräume gebildet werden, in die Luftsauerstoff eindringt, der eine unerwünschte Buttersäuregärung bewirkt.When feeding the silo with grain, however, extraordinary difficulties arise because such high-strength feedstuffs are not pumpable. On the one hand, this has the consequence that a continuous loading of the silos and a corresponding continuous removal of the ensiled feed is not possible and, on the other hand, feed-free cavities are formed in the silo, into which atmospheric oxygen penetrates, which causes undesired butyric acid fermentation.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur Silierung zur Verfügung zu stellen, welches die kontinuierliche und hohlraumfreie Beschickung des Silos sowie die kontinuierliche Entnahme der vergorenen Futtermittel aus dem Silo ermöglicht, ohne daß zusätzliche Vorrichtungen außer den üblichen Pumpvorrichtungen angewendet werden müssen.The invention has for its object to provide a method for ensiling, which enables the continuous and cavity-free loading of the silo and the continuous removal of the fermented feed from the silo, without the need to use additional devices other than the usual pumping devices.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zur Konservierung von stärkehaltigen Futtermitteln durch Silieren, bei dem die Futtermittel zerkleinert, in einen Silo eingebracht und dort der Gärung unterworfen werden, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß man die Futtermittel vor oder während des Einbringens in den Silo mit Wasser oder wässrigen Flüssigkeiten bis zu einem Gesamtfeuchtigkeitsgehalt, der den Futtermitteln Pumpfähigkeit verleiht, der jedoch einen Wert von 75 Gew.-% nicht überschreitet, versetzt.The invention relates to a method for the preservation of starchy feedstuffs by means of ensiling, in which the feedstuffs are crushed, placed in a silo and subjected to fermentation there, which is characterized in that the feedstuffs are mixed with water before or during the introduction into the silo or aqueous liquids up to a total moisture content which gives the feeds pumpability but which does not exceed a value of 75% by weight.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren werden die Futtermittel, wie Mais und Getreide, zunächst durch Mahlen zerkleinert, was mit Hilfe üblicher Methoden erfolgen kann.In the method according to the invention, the feed, such as corn and cereals, is first crushed by grinding, which can be done using conventional methods.

Das Mahlgut wird dann in einer Mischvorrichtung, beispielsweise einer Förderschnecke, mit Wasser oder der wässrigen Flüssigkeit vermischt und das erhaltene homogene Gemisch wird unmittelbar in den Silo eingebracht. Bei Verwendung einer Förderschnecke können das Mahlgut und das Wasser gesondert der Schnecke zugeführt werden.The ground material is then mixed with water or the aqueous liquid in a mixing device, for example a screw conveyor, and the homogeneous mixture obtained is introduced directly into the silo. When using a screw conveyor, the regrind and the water can be fed separately to the screw.

Gemäß einer anderen Ausführungsform wird das Wasser beim Mahlen des Futtermittels der Mahlvorrichtung zugesetzt. Dies kann insbesondere dann erfolgen, wenn der .Wassergehalts des Mahlguts bereits relativ hoch ist.According to another embodiment, the water is added to the grinding device during the grinding of the feed. This can take place in particular if the water content of the ground material is already relatively high.

In jedem Fall wird Wasser in einer solchen Menge zugesetzt, daß das mit Wasser gemischte vermahlene Futtermittel pumpfähig wird. Ein bevorzugter Gesamtfeuchtigkeitsgehalt liegt im Bereich von 50 bis 75 Gew.-%.In any case, water is added in such an amount that the ground feed mixed with water becomes pumpable. A preferred total moisture content is in the range of 50 to 75% by weight.

Anstelle von Wasser kann auch eine wässrige Flüssigkeit verwendet werden, beispielsweise Molke.Instead of water, an aqueous liquid can also be used, for example whey.

Geeignet ist außerdem eine wässrige Lösung, der übliche Zusätze für die Silierung zugesetzt wurden.An aqueous solution to which conventional additives for ensiling have been added is also suitable.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren läßt sich mit besonderem Vorteil zur Silierung von Getreide- und Maisschrot anwenden.The process according to the invention can be used with particular advantage for ensiling grain and corn meal.

Während vermahlenes Getreide nach bisher üblichen Methoden nur sehr schwierig zu transportieren und in den Silo einzubringen war, wird erfindungsgemäß die kontinuierliche Zuführung des Getreide- und Maisschrots in den Silo sowie die kontinuierliche Entnahme des vergorenen Getreideschrots in einfacher Weise mit üblichen Pumpvorrichtungen ermöglicht. Durch die gute Fließfähigkeit wird der Silo dicht und hohlraumfrei gefüllt und auf diese Weise der Luftausschluß gewährleistet. Dies hat zur Folge, daß die erwünschte Milchsäuregärung auftritt, ohne daß unerwünschte Nebengärungen in erheblichem Umfang stattfinden.While milled grain was very difficult to transport and to introduce into the silo according to conventional methods, the continuous feeding of the grain and maize meal into the silo and the continuous removal of the fermented is according to the invention Allows cereal meal in a simple manner with conventional pumping devices. Due to the good flowability, the silo is filled tightly and free of voids, thus ensuring the exclusion of air. As a result, the desired lactic acid fermentation occurs without undesired secondary fermentation taking place to a considerable extent.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren läßt sich besonders vorteilhaft unter Anwendung eines Silos durchführen, der von unten beschickt wird und aus dem die Entnahme ebenfalls von unten über ein Steigrohr erfolgt. Erfindungsgemäß ist auch bei Anwendung eines solchen Silos die kontinuierliche Beschickung und kontinuierliche Entnahme mit Hilfe üblicher Pumpvorrichtungen möglich.The process according to the invention can be carried out particularly advantageously using a silo which is fed from below and from which the removal is likewise carried out from below via a riser pipe. According to the invention, the continuous loading and removal with the aid of conventional pumping devices is also possible when using such a silo.

Bei Anwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird, aufgrund der höheren Dichte der Silobeschickung und der höheren Feuchtigkeit, eine raschere und weitgehendere Milchsäuregärung bis zu einem relativ sauren pH-Wert von 4 bis 5 ermöglicht.When using the method according to the invention, a faster and more extensive lactic acid fermentation up to a relatively acidic pH of 4 to 5 is made possible due to the higher density of the silo feed and the higher humidity.
